This bronze double lamp is made by the workshop of Severo da Ravenna in ca. 1500-1550 in Padua, Italy.
The lamp with a tripod stand (addition) has a standing putto finial, which is not original.
Severo da Ravenna or Severo di Domenico Calzetta da Ravenna was an Italian sculptor, active ca. 1496, who died in ca. 1543. His father was probably a sculptor and he may have been related to the two painters of the same name working in the circle of Mantegna in Padua: Pietro Calzetta and Francesco Calzetta. Severo might have divided his time between Padua, Ferrara and Ravenna, where he was first recorded in 1496.
